Comment
While we're all looking at the A400 and its companion over Afghanistan, a third Turkish A400 slips into Africa, again.There are reports of heavy weapons being used in clashes between "Turkish trained Haram'ad forces & Pro-govt Ma'awisley militia's" on the outskirts of Mogadishu. So if, like yesterday this flight is returning "Turkey-trained female Somali commandos" home, their training could be put to the test.
Yes, it also appears to be a troop transport. All male apparently this time.
@ 15:57 UTC : looks like it's returning home not stopping in JIB.
